Enjoy your vinyl collection even more with this iFi Audio iPhono3 Black Label phono stage. This phono preamp is especially intended for those who have already made the analog step to vinyl before and want to make a big leap in sound quality when listening to vinyl albums. This pre-pre from iFi is also a very smart choice if you want to make the step to vinyl, but you are not yet sure which record player and/or element suits you best. This iFi iPhono3 can grow with you. Are you ready for a higher quality element? By switching a switch on the iPhono3, you can optimally adjust the equalization to the new element and immediately enjoy the gain in sound quality.

Everyone’s friend

With the dip-switches on the underside of the iPhono3 you can set the phonostage to your own record player element in the blink of an eye. Do you have a vintage turntable with an MM, MC or high output MC cartridge? This iPhono3 can be set accurately so that you experience the best possible sound quality with every brand and type of element. The gain is adjustable from 36 to 72 dB, the load for MM elements from 100pF to 500pF and the MC load is default 47kOhm or is adjustable from 33Ohm to 1.43kOhm. Then you set the correct IEC, RIAA and eRIAA curve and the iPhono3 is 100% operational. If you need a little help with this, you can easily do it with the online iPhono Calculator from iFi.

Many possibilities

This iPhono3 phono stage from iFi Audio is technically based on the high-quality PH-77 phono stage from parent company AMR. The iPhono3 is more compact in construction, but nevertheless delivers functionality and sound quality that is certainly unique in this price range. Moreover, with this preamp you can choose from different equalization curves. The RIAA standard is used worldwide for vinyl after 1980, but in the decades before that, the major companies mainly used their own curves. Do you like to listen to old Decca or Columbia albums and do they sound flat and lifeless? Then simply switch the curve with the 3-position switch.

Sound quality

One of the most important starting points for choosing this iFi iPhono3 phono stage is the perfect sound quality. This phonostage is completely discretely constructed with carefully selected and coordinated components. The DC-coupled line stage has no capacitors in the signal path and is built entirely in class A. To this end, iFi has applied its TubeState technology that provides even more musicality. The frequency range is 10Hz to 100kHz (+/- 0.3dB), dynamic range is 108dB-A (MM) and 106dB-A (MC). As you are used to from iFi, the manufacturer has again done everything to suppress noise and distortion as much as possible. That is why iFi includes its much acclaimed iPower X mains adapter with this Black Label phonostage. With this you can enjoy a perfect sound quality of vinyl with an ultra-low noise.
